How to add a nice code block to blogger
While there are awesome syntax highlighting and styling libraries with nicely written tutorials for using them with blogger, a simple ‘code’ tag can suffice at times…
For such times:
.myCodeHighlighter {
border-left: 4px solid #FF9933;
display: block;
font-family: Courier,"Courier New",monospace;
margin: 15px;
overflow: auto;
padding: 15px;
text-align: left;
white-space: nowrap;
}
And use as:
<code class="myCodeHighlighter">
//the code codes here..
</code>
